Allow the wires to go trough the arrows of free text

Status: Declined
Will be tracked with CAR 432824

In LabVIEW 2013 a new feature was introduced, the arrow connecting free text and code objects. However when you try to route a wire trough the arrow the LabVIEW routing goes nuts and try's to avoid the arrows at all cost.

A picture to show what I mean:

Wires and comments.png

The highighted wire (yellow-red) is routed from "Start Location" to "End Location" by LabVIEW. However I would like to see somehting more like the blue line since this makes more sense. If I want the blue wire I have to manually move the wire since the rouring can't handle the arrows of the free text boxes.

Not every CAR fixed is included in that list. Only the ones that developers felt were worth promoting. This CAR number was mentioned here in the idea exchange and so Jeff noted it was fixed, but it was a minor bug that was not included in the general list of CARs. When Jeff used the term "more complete", he meant as in "closer to a complete list", not as in "this and all other CARs fixed".

Ok, now it makes more sense.

 

Also a bit of bad reading on my side. I totally missed the "more complete" part..
